'Sneaky Peek at a card for Imagination Caft's show on Create & Craft.

Hi there everyone,

Hoping you have had a lovely day. I've been out in the garden today, to try and get on top of the weeds. Where do they all come from lol! Tonight I'd like to share a card with you, that I have made for Sue and Harvey of Imagination Craft's for their show on Create & Craft T.V. on Friday 24th July. Hope you have the time to tune in to see Sue doing her demos.

Fold the ready creased white card down the crease line to make a 7"x7" base card. Matt a smaller piece of black card onto the white, then a smaller piece of teal card onto the black.

Take a piece of white card, cut slightly smaller than the teal card. Spritz the Gelli Plate with water and add the Starlight Paints. Press the white card on top of the water and paints and rub over the back of the card with your hand, or if you wish you could use a brayer.. Remove the card and leave to dry.

When dry, lay the flower words stencil, using the word 'Fleur' only and spread the black stars Sparkle Medium over the word, using the metal spatula. Remove the stencil and leave the image to dry.

When dry, do the same again with the flowers on the stencil. When dry, trim the card to fit the teal card, leaving a small border showing and glue in position with Magi-bond glue.

Die-cut four corners using the Tattered Lace die and cover with the copper Alchemy Wax and glue one in each corner.

Die-cut four leaf stems from black card, using the Tattered Lace die and cover with copper Alchemy Wax.
Glue these on the card front with Magi-bond glue.

Take the Art Cutz flower and paint with the Orange Oxide, White Gold and Menthol Starlight Paints. Back this with a piece of black card and glue in position on the left-hand side.

That's all from me tonight my friends but I will be back tomorrow night with another creation - A Santa sleigh! Hope I have the pleasure of your company then lol. Enjoy the rest of your evening.

About Me

Hi there, my name is Jennifer, I have 2 sons and 1 beautiful grandson, who is the light of our lives.My hubby puts up with my addiction to card making, not to mention my untidy craft room. I can't find anything when it is tidy, lol! We live in the peace and tranquility of the countryside where I get some of my inspiration for my creations. I have crafted for most of my life, from cross stitch, porcelain doll making to Pergamano and more, but the last 30 years have been dedicated to card making and is my real passion.I met Sue and Harvey of Imagination Crafts over 10 years ago, when they asked me to make some cards for them and we have been good friends ever since. I feel truly privileged to be part of their design team. Thank you for stopping by to visit my blog and I hope you find some inspiration for your creations. Hugs, Jennifer xx
